Brick Oven Face and Flue

The final phase of the Brewster Academy wood-fired brick oven in Estabrook dining facility is at hand.

Once the core dome was complete, with additional mass (9"total), the face arch was built, the make-up air channels and the flue were formed as the front wall of the oven leveled off and was finished to just below the ceiling with concrete block.
Veneer stone (granite slabs and Stoneyard brand Boston Blend will face the oven front.
